4 LG Video Wall 55VH7B IN EVERY PLACEMENT, THE STRATEGY IS HIGH VISIBILITY There s perhaps no place where LG commercial displays with In-Plane Switching (IPS) technology offer more advantages than in large public areas such as an airport. They enable outstanding off-angle viewing where images and text remain crisp and colors stay vivid and accurate. Passengers can then easily see and read the information even while on the go. IPS also prevents screen deterioration and image blackening that often occurs when non-ips panels are used in areas with direct sunlight and experience high temperatures. IPS Technology Advantages Ultra-wide viewing angle retains high image quality Energy efficient for greater corporate responsibility and cost savings Greater stability and reliability; no image distortion when tapping/ rubbing on the panel Runs considerably cooler than VA (Vertical Alignment) panels Improved thermal stability preserves image quality and can extend the life of the display Color accuracy remains consistent over long-term use, for greater ROI 3-year warranty 4
